gpgsplit is part of all GnuPG versions and all versions should work for
you. Thus you may download a gpg 1.4 version, unpack and build it but
do not install it:
tar xzf gnupg-1.4.22.tar.gz
cd gnupg-1.4.22
./configure && make
Then you should find a
tools/gpgsplit
which can be used for that task. I have not read the HOWTO so I won't
comment on this. However, I created a freature request to make this
easier:
